I Cater To Your Child's Needs Specifically

I have no formal training in special needs. However, if your child struggles with light to moderate needs, I am amazing. Kids with needs tend to feel calm and safe around me. I speak their language, and it is usually not in words, but in feelings and impressions.

I treat everyone with respect and compassion, and I have a lot of patience for whatever situation might come up. I have a younger brother with Autism, and I have babysat him very often since he was born....
